You can send a message by doing:

- echo "This is a test" | smbclient -M host

Make sure not to use the //netbios-name notation.  The man page has some extra info on how to receive Winpopup messages.

Can someone tell me if this is possible and if so how.
 Using samba you can send win popup messages to a host
by doing a "smbclient -M host -U username".  Can you
do a remote shutdown of a win 2000 server?  I know
that you can do it from another Windows 2000 or XP
computer but can you do it from a linux computer using samba?
